0 to 1
ai kills the idea maze and the stress tests that happen in the 0 to 1 process
the idea maze gets built and refined subconsciously when you write the prd, the deck, the 1 page north star doc, the wireframe, the db schema etc
when you skip those, you sometimes you get lucky.. a lot of the time ai takes you down the wrong maze
It feels a bit like we’re entering an era of the “0 → 0 paradox”

Jumping straight into code can feel like you’re pushing from 0 → 1 faster, but the lack of design thinking can set you further back than where you started
Modals everywhere, complex flows, overly/under branded…
